    Area of Science:

    • Anatomy
    • Vascular Anatomy
    • Neuroanatomy

    Background:

    • The cavernous sinus is a complex venous structure at the base of the skull.
    • Understanding its detailed anatomy is crucial for surgical and clinical interventions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the macroscopic and microscopic anatomical features of the cavernous sinus.
    • To document the relationship between cranial nerves, the internal carotid artery, and the cavernous sinus structure.

    Main Methods:

    • Macroscopic examination of 12 frozen cavernous sinuses.
    • Microscopic examination of serial sections from 25 formalin-fixed cavernous sinuses.
    • Histological staining using Hematoxylin and Eosin.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Cranial nerves III, IV, and V consistently traversed the lateral wall; cranial nerve VI was present in 48% of specimens.
    • The internal carotid artery was fully encased by the cavernous sinus in 72% of cases.
    • Cavernous sinus morphology varied, categorized into broken (58%), unbroken (33%), and scattered channels (9%) based on trabeculae.

    Conclusions:

    • The cavernous sinus exhibits significant anatomical variability.
    • Detailed anatomical knowledge of the cavernous sinus is essential for neurosurgical procedures and understanding related pathologies.
